L.A. Noire is her ideal game, and we are going to look for the two Sherlock Holmes games (the testament and crimes and punishment) as well when we go buy the console.

Does anybody know of any other good detective games for the ps3? No downloads, please.

Watch Dog's is kind of a detective game, but you are a vigilante... the main character does a bit of detective work lol... There's also Battlefied: Hardline which in the singleplayer you play a detective I believe, though that's a shooter....

@KratosTheAlmighty I don't think those are what she's looking for. Even though you play a detective in both those games, they're really NOT detective-genre games. Sleeping Dogs is a sandbox-style game similar to Grand Theft Auto and Battlefield: Hardline is a first-person shooter that hasn't even been released yet...

@MJ12_Conspiracy the 'we like you' thing is key to that era. They did that with the Zodiac case as well but I will say I thought it was lame that you killed most of the bad guys. There is the dlc mission where the big explosion happens and the cop tells you to either cuff the looters or kill them yet it didn't seem like I had a choice really. Same goes with some in the main story. I think it was very different on the force back then but still suspects are more valuable alive.

@Phelan : Oh I intend to finish this game. I admit, I prefer games in this style (including NCIS and CSI) far more than the obligatory run and gun etc style games a lot of people focus on now. Probably because I was one who loved the old point and click style games of the 90;s.

I remember there is a little trick to trigger the needed cars to appear. If I remember it right, search the needed car in the catalogue and wait for it's model to be loaded. Then go right back in the game and the car will appear very likely.

I guess on the older consoles the game needs to save memories, so it uses the same models over and over. It is to funny: if you finally found a rare car and sit in it, it will drive around the streets a lot!
